Important In response to customer feedback that we received after the original release of this update on April 10, 2012, this update was revised and re-released on June 12, 2012.

Note If you previously installed hotfix 2705622 to address printing issues in Windows Forms and are now installing this re-release of this security update, you will see that installation of the update is blocked. This behavior is expected because hotfix 2705622 contains a more recent file version of the installed files and supersedes this re-release. To install the re-released security update, please uninstall hotfix 2705622 before you install the security update re-release.
